starting exes with wine

I'm running Sidux distro and Wine 1.0-RC2. When I right clicked on an exe file it showed me an option to launch the file using wine. That feature is now gone and even double-clicking does not work but instead sidux/KDE offers me to choose a program for opening the file.

Now I want to re-enable the context menu feature or at least let wine open exes by double-clicking.

Thanks
